Today the United Nations, the state of Israel and Jewish communities around the world have reached a new level of confidence and mutual understanding," Annan told a delegation of Jewish leaders

Huh? I suppose this is the same as " I have been exonerated"

Yes.. I am sure that immense population of 13,000,000 Jews worldwide will help push his agenda. This idea of Jews pushing his agenda leads one to believe that he harbors views of immense Jewish influence — itself an anti—Semitic shibboleth.
